In fact, the headline on Penn State’s athletic website detailing the championships read: “Penn State is top 20 once more.” Well, 16 years later, it’s safe to say a 17th-place finish wouldn’t fly in Happy Valley. A second-place finish would probably feel just as lousy. It all started April 17, 2009.

University Park— Right now, there are two transfer portal windows in college football, and Penn State coach James Franklin wants to see that change. The winter window closed Dec. 28. The spring window will open April 16 and run through April 25. This means that players can go through a whole spring practice season and still decide to transfer, as we just saw in Knoxville, Tennessee. For Franklin, the best thing for the sport would be for one transfer portal window.
